Shafter's New Park Needs Your Name

Shafter’s got a big new park coming — five-and-a-half acres packed with playgrounds, pickleball courts, a splash pad, a skate park, and night lighting — and they’re asking YOU to name it. With a $4 million state grant already in place and construction starting in September 2025, the project’s on track for a ribbon-cutting in September 2026. The City Council will vote June 2nd to launch a community naming contest, with a committee of two council members and a Youth Council rep to help choose from your submissions. Don’t miss your chance to give this vibrant new space its official identity. Support the show:Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
